Florida Sues Biden-Harris DOJ For Allegedly Blocking Trump Assassination Attempt Investigation
'Halt the state's investigation'
Leftists 'attract a pretty nasty crowd’: Suspected would-be Trump shooter's son arrested for possession of the worst kind
When Kyle Rittenhouse shot three men — who were all strangers to each other — he was unaware that each man had a criminal history. Rittenhouse was simply defending himself and Kenosha from a left-wing mob.
“What are the odds of three strangers with crazy perverted independent criminal histories being together like that on the street?” Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” asks.
“It seems like that’s an insane amount of creeps and criminals to be gathered in a small area all at the same time,” she continues, noting that “most things involving leftists tend to attract a pretty nasty crowd.”
Now the suspected would-be Trump shooter's son, Oran Routh, was arrested on Tuesday after police searched his Greensboro, North Carolina, home “in connection with an investigation, unrelated to child exploitation.”
Allegedly, the police found “hundreds of files depicting child sexual abuse.”
“It’s really an odd twist in this saga that nobody saw coming,” Wheeler mocks, explaining that Routh claimed his father hated president Trump and was quoted saying that “every reasonable person does.”
“The son sounded just like his father, who sounded like an indoctrinated leftist activist, who sounded exactly like the talking heads in the mainstream media,” she adds.
However, as always, it’s innocent until proven guilty — as it should be.
“We shouldn’t just believe the authorities automatically,” Wheeler explains. “We know for a fact that the Department of Justice lies for political and self-protecting purposes all the time, but that doesn’t seem to pass the smell test here.”
“If you dabble in evil ideology, evil leftist ideology, it will invariably lead you to evil of the most twisted kind.”

INSANE! Trump 'hitman' offers $150,000 for former president’s life
Not only did Ryan Routh attempt to take Donald Trump’s life, but the would-be assassin placed a $150,000 bounty on Trump’s life.
Law enforcement has been contacted by a civilian witness who explained that Routh dropped off a box at his residence that contained ammunition, a metal pipe, miscellaneous building materials, tools, four phones, and various letters.
The civilian witness claims he didn’t open the box until he had learned of the assassination attempt.
“This was an assassination on Donald Trump, but I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job, and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job,” Routh wrote in one of the letters.
Routh went on to complain that Trump does not “embody the moral fabric that is America" and called our current leaders "selfless."
“So he thinks that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, at bare minimum, embody the moral fabric that is America and that they are kind, caring, and selfless,” Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” comments.
“Joe’s real selfless, all right, to the tune of millions and millions of dollars that he raked in,” she continues. “But I just really want to know where did Ryan Routh get, or where would he have gotten, $150,000?”
“It’s a lot of money for someone who’s poor, who has no assets except like two pickup trucks to his name,” she says, noting that the rhetoric the left uses to talk about Trump likely is responsible.
“You see this rhetoric, you know that it’s amping people up,” Gonzales adds. “You see this guy releasing a freaking $150,000 bounty on Donald Trump’s head.”

Suspected would-be assassin offered a bounty on Trump's head, prosecutors reveal
Federal prosecutors revealed in a Monday filing that Ryan Routh, the 58-year-old Democratic donor suspected of trying to assassinate Kamala Harris' opponent on Sept. 15, previously offered an international bounty on President Donald Trump's head and had foreknowledge of Trump's whereabouts.
According to the filing in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, a civilian witness approached law enforcement days after Routh's Sept. 15 arrest, indicating the suspected would-be assassin had dropped off a box at his residence several months prior.
'It is up to you now to finish the job.'
Upon learning of the assassination attempt, the witness, who is unnamed in the filing, apparently opened the box. There, he reportedly found ammunition, a metal pipe, building materials, four phones, and a number of letters, including one addressed to "The World."
Routh's appeal to murderers abroad, which largely reads like Harris campaign literature, allegedly states:
Dear World, This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I am so sorry I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job; and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job. Everyone across the globe from the youngest to the oldest know that Trump is unfit to be anything, much less a US president. U.S. presidents must at bare minimum embody the moral fabric that is America and be kind, caring and selfless and always stand for humanity.
While the Department of Justice disclosed the first page of the letter, the remainder was not shared. However, the filing indicated that the letter does at one point state, "He [the former President] ended relations with Iran like a child and now the Middle East has unraveled."
Donald Trump Jr. asked on X, "WTF!? Why is Kamala's DOJ publicizing Ryan Wesley Routh putting a bounty on my dad's head???"
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) suggested, "The DOJ, which is trying to put Trump in prison, is now offering a bounty on Trump's head by releasing this. Why else would they release this?"
Routh's letter to killers abroad echoes what he wrote in his self-published 2023 book, "Ukraine's Unwinnable War."
In the book, Routh — who made around 20 small donations to Democrats through ActBlue between 2019 and 2020 and who the Department of Homeland Security declined to investigate despite previous complaints — apologized to Iranians for Trump dismantling the nuclear deal and noted, "You are free to assassinate Trump as well as me for that error in judgment."
Routh added, "No one here in the US seems to have the balls to put natural selection to work or even unnatural selection."
Prosecutors indicated that the box Routh dropped off with the witness also contained a handwritten list of dates in August, September, and October and corresponding venues indicating where Trump had appeared or was anticipated to show up.
It's presently unclear whether the dates and locations were all public knowledge. However, acting USSS Director Ronald Rowe told reporters last week that Trump "wasn't supposed to have gone there in the first place," referencing his Sept. 15 visit to the golf course.
There was also a notebook in the box filled with names and phone numbers linked to Ukraine along with "discussions about how to join combat on behalf of Ukraine."
Blaze News previously reported that Routh fancied himself an international recruiter for Ukrainian forces and ran the website "Fight for Ukraine." Although Ukraine's foreign legion reportedly figured him for a charlatan, he was featured in multiple mainstream reports about international recruitment.
In addition to attempting to help Afghan militants qualify to fight against Russia in Ukraine, Routh was apparently a cheerleader for the Ukrainian brigade associated with neo-Nazis since its inception. He appears at the 1:50-minute mark in a 2022 video of a Ukrainian demonstration in support of the Azov Brigade.
The Azov Brigade said in a statement last week that it "has no connection" to Routh.
The court filing noted further that the FBI obtained cell site records for two of the phones found in the vehicle Routh reportedly used to flee the scene of the alleged assassination attempt.
The records indicated that Routh traveled from Greensboro, North Carolina, to West Palm Beach on Aug. 14.
Between Aug. 18 and Sept. 15, Routh's phone allegedly accessed cell towers near Trump's golf course and Mar-a-Lago residence on numerous occasions.
Extra to revealing Routh's apparent willingness to outsource Trump's assassination to foreign killers and his apparent foreknowledge of Trump's whereabouts, prosecutors highlighted ahead of Routh's detention hearing Monday that on Dec. 20, 2002, the Ukraine-war obsessive was convicted in North Carolina for possession of a weapon of mass destruction — a "binary explosive device" — as well as in 2010 for multiple counts of possession of stolen goods.
Blaze News previously reported that when Routh appeared in court on Dec. 18, 2002, his bond amount was increased to $100,000, and he was ordered released Dec. 18 by Superior Court Judge Peter M. McHugh. Days later, Routh entered a plea agreement that led to dismissal of the explosives charge, and his bond was reduced to $10,000.
Rather than serve up to 19 months in prison, Routh was ultimately ordered to serve 60 months of probation and to pay a $225 fine.

‘Finish The Job’: DOJ Publishes Bounty Offer From Latest Would-Be Trump Assassin
Prosecutors for the U.S. Department of Justice released a letter, allegedly penned by the man arrested for attempting to assassinate former President Donald Trump as he golfed in West Palm Beach last week, which offers a $150,000 reward to anyone who could “complete the job” of murdering the Republican candidate. “This was an assassination attempt […]Would-be Trump assassin ARRESTED 74 times before attempt — and spent ZERO time incarcerated
Ryan Routh planned to assassinate Donald Trump outside his Florida golf club — and thankfully, he failed.
Blaze News investigative journalist Steve Baker has done some digging on the would-be assassin, and he isn’t thrilled with what he’s found.
“What we’ve uncovered is more questions that are not being answered,” Baker tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.” “Was he there by luck of the draw from three different courses that President Trump could have played that morning?”
“They could answer all of these questions right now. They could also answer the question about whether that GoPro that was hanging on the fence, mounted on the fence, was set up to broadcast to someone’s cellular device or Wi-Fi device in proximity to where he was,” Baker explains.
However, the actual attempt on Trump’s life isn’t the only factor we should be concerned about.
“This guy has an extensive rap sheet, and there’s some curious aspects to this,” Peterson comments.
Baker notes that “the most curious aspect of them all” is that Routh has had over a hundred charges, including one where he supposedly was in possession of a weapon of mass destruction.
“He held off the Greensboro North Carolina police department and the Guilford County Sheriff Department for three hours with a machine gun, and then that was suddenly pled down to a concealed weapons charge,” Baker says.
“Most curious, with all of these charges, 74 arrests, how much time did he spend incarcerated? None. Zero,” he adds.

Sheriff whose men repeatedly arrested would-be TRUMP SHOOTER speaks out
Interview with B.J. Barnes, former Guilford County, North Carolina, sheriff whose men dealt with suspected would-be Trump shooter Ryan Routh multiple times over many years. Read about Routh's extensive criminal history here.
**********
Baker: Did you ever have any personal interactions with Ryan Routh?
Barnes: Never personally, but with over 100 charges and arrests, many of my guys did. He was rather notorious among my people.
Baker: How is it that Routh never served any prison time, given that he had so many arrests and several felony charges and convictions?
Barnes: Guilford County and greater Greensboro are historically very liberal. Our courts here would rather plea out everyone to lesser charges than do the work of convicting real criminals.
Baker: But he had so many criminal charges. Shouldn’t there have been a tipping point where the courts felt they should make him serve time?
Barnes: One would think so.
Baker: What about the 2002 standoff with the “weapon of mass destruction”?
Barnes: That was primarily a standoff with the Greensboro Police Department, but my department was there and assisted. As to the weapons charge, that was pled down to a concealed carry violation, and Routh got away with a wrist-slap.
Baker: It would seem that in a liberal area like Greensboro — and especially with such a serious weapons charge — the politics would dictate such a severe weapons violation would require a harsh response, to make an example out of Routh. Why wouldn’t they go that route?
Barnes: Now, that’s a very good question. At the very least, the weapons charge [in 2002] should have been turned over to federal authorities.
Baker: Since you’ve left service with the Guilford County Sheriff’s Department, are there any good guys left … who might have access to records or be willing to talk?
Barnes: None that would talk to you. That’s the real problem. Apart from myself, there were a total of six conservative North Carolina sheriffs, all taken out at the same time in a coordinated political attack. That’s what really concerns me about this coming election cycle. If they did it once, they can do it again.
Baker: Was it Soros' money used against you and the other conservative sheriffs?
Barnes: No doubt about it.
